A neat little number by the late, great Robbie Benoit.
It’s pronounced Ben-noyt if you are not French, Ben-wa

There are fates worse than death…

A great one from Kathleen Madigan off of her latest
recording “Bothering Jesus”.
She sounds like she had a heck of a good time doing it.
On top of her game and as good as ever.

Ha!

Rik Roberts with a piece about looking in both

A twisted metaphor but somewhat accurate.
I like this one, creative and somewhat hopeful.
Did I mention a bit twisted as well?

slid into the drivers side and flew right out the passenger window.
Wouldn’t have been too bad had my towel not stayed in the car.
After a brief explanation the charges were dropped…
